Members of the media are invited to visit TE Connectivity (TE) at booth #33 at Aviation Electronics Europe to see TE’s latest advancements in distributed avionics architecture.
Expanded use of high-speed data protocols and improvements in embedded computing are allowing designers to distribute avionics as modular units throughout the airframe. This Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) approach offers designers flexibility as well as space and weight savings. New packaging with lighter materials also makes distributed systems more cost-effective.
Box-to-box connectivity becomes a critical issue in distributed avionics as the old, slow speed links and short distances that used to be easily accommodated by copper cable, now require higher-speed interconnects. When high-speed interconnects are required, challenges arise in maintaining signal integrity over longer distances.
At Aviation Electronics Europe, TE will showcase solutions that support distributed avionics and provide signal integrity, including the MULTIGIG RT 2-R ruggedized, lightweight, VITA 46-compliant backplane connector.
TE’s Greg Powers, Business Development Manager, C4ISR/UAV/Space, will also be presenting The Importance of Connectivity in Reducing Avionics SWaP at the show. Join Greg as he discusses how connectivity technology plays a vital role in avionics packaging on Wednesday, March 25 at 12 p.m. at the TE booth.
TE engineers will be available for interviews at its booth throughout the show.
